Why a "V" and not an "R"? It`s a "V"35, coz thats what Nissan named it!

Thats *V35* dude... But yeah, I have exactly the same opinion as you p1r4t8r, the Carlos Ghosn produced V35 is a Skyline in name only, and yeah, by having a so-called "world car", the exclusivity is lost from the Skyline name. This whole "World Nissan" idea (reality?) from Ghosn has destroyed everything that made Nissan great in the first place. It doesn`t matter if more Yanks are going to buy a V8 GT-R than a V6 Turbo one, thats just BS to think that the new GT-R is being stripped of it`s identity in order to appease a few Yanks who don`t even know what a GT-R is... ^^^^THATS what happens when a fookin` beancounter is CEO of a car company.

I take it you don`t mind the direction Nissan is heading in then Sonic? I for one am not against Renault saving Nissan, in fact I support Renault... they (before you guys were born) practically introduced the turbocharger to F1 in the late seventies. But the fact of the matter is, Nissan is going soft, on account of Carlos Ghosn telling the Japanese management at Nissan how to design and market cars. Ghosn + Nissan = Crap product.

Here ya go... a Zero R in as new condition...

You know Predator, I think you hit the nail on the head. This is not about a "Porsche toppling GT-R", but about Carlos Ghosn moving and making it *his* GT-R... like I said before, it`s gonna take until 2007 for Ghosn to bully the Japs at Nissan to do what he says, and I don`t think Ghosn cares when the car comes out, just so long as it`s *his* GT-R. Proper w-a-n-k-e-r. >Warpspeed: Man, thats conspiracy shenanigans going on right there, if Nissan know whats going to happen in the future financially and when, why did they almost go bankrupt?

eh? I posted in jest, no hard feelings k?

Oi! Amanda! This thread was going to turn into a HUGE Carlos Ghosn bitchfest, and you just bllllllllew it off going on about amphibious vehicles... did you read the thread title? I thought not... Back to th` Wasteland with ye! Gwarn! Back! BACK I tell thee!!!

RRRRRREPOST!!! Hey, if you guys are pissed because the GT-R is a) looking ghey, B) taking too long, c) not Nissan style, just send a hugely bagging e-mail to: [email protected]

God damn man, you spent all that money on the car but couldn`t get a set of aero mirrors?!? Those stock door mirrors look SHITE. But niiiice car, I luv it... bar the mirrors:D:D:D

Are you refering to a R32 GTS-T "Type M"?

Great, then you, me and Demon Dave will meet up (with our respective other halves) then? It`ll be sweet, coz at least the ladies will be occupied while the boyz run riot with the digicams/disposables taking "shots" heh, heh...

My next question is: Do you have aero mirrors yet? Forget the stickers... I think having standard factory mirrors are worse than being called rice.

Yeah, the "H15" is more used in official situations, TV news, and office documents etc, but magazines, regular TV shows and popculture related stuff of course use 2003 randomly. Are you going to TAS `04 DaiOni?

Yeah, by "period" I mean reigning emporer. I`m suprised they didn`t teach you about it... it`s an every day factor of Jap life.

Gemballa aren`t the same Company as Porcshe are they? No? So Nissan just has to make a better car than the standard 911 Turbo, and Nismo/Altia will do the rest to get that Nurburgring record.

Predator... you should read "The New GT-R...!" thread, it has all the answers. Oh, and it seems like it`s getting delayed and delayed because of one man... Carlos "Nissan is MY bitch" Ghosn.

The 3UZFE is out of the Japanese Celsior... and I think its the Lexus SC430 in Oz? Bugger the 3UZFE, someone should put the 1GZFE V12 out of the Toyota Century into a Trueno or an Altezza, cut n` shut, I know but... can you imagine?

No GT-R at the Tokyo Show man... we`d been saying that in the 2 months leading up to the TAS...

The "H" stands for the first letter of the "Period" that the Japanese are in. In this case the "Heisei" peroid. So eg: "H1" is the first year of the Heisei period. The Heisei period started in Jan 1989, so H1 = 1989, H2 = 1990, H3 = 1991 as so on. Before the "Heisei" peroid, it was the "Showa" period, and this period started way back in Dec 1926 and continued until 1989. Thats why (when we refer to AE86 Trueno`s and the like) theres always a "S61" or "S62" "S63" along side the name of the car on auction documents from Japan. Can I ask how you translated all that kanji without knowing the Japanese calendar? Just curious!

That should be 1995 dude... H7 = 1995.

strutto is right, the position of the nut countersinkings in relation to the spokes clearly shows it is indeed a 5 stud rim. Can you "4 stud guys" tell us why you say it`s a 4 stud rim?

As long as you get your money??? Your OPENLY decieving people mate! You should go on the recieving end sometime, see how you like it, f*cking up your forum... Now be a good boy, delete your post, and p!ss off.

Hey commi16, I`m trying to decide which catagory you belong to, click the links and decide for us will you? Ta mate. I`m a "frustrated teen":whackit: I`m a retarded spammer Both of the above Cheers

Whats the commotion about? Of course it`s bloody 5 stud. I mean... *cough*... there`s 2 studs hidden coz of the "dish" of the center section of the wheel. Bugger the 3 studs... a more pressing matter is why is this thread in existence???

"... and Bloomberg Television will be trackside..." Heh, heh, I hope they went to the right venue!
